Ok, so technically, you are abou 19 1/2 months old. You think you are such a big boy now...you love to stand on the stool in the bathroom and brush your teeth. Your big sister actually taught you how to do this. You weigh 23 pounds, 6 ounces, and are running all over the place. You laugh at everything. Your favorite word...Daddy (I guess Mommy will get over that!!) Your favorite thing to play...football. You love to watch Wiggles and Higglytown Heroes in the morning while we get ready to go to Miss Renee's (Nay-Nay) for the day. You also like to sit with Daddy in his camo recliner and watch football and hunting. You like to watch for the "Big Deer." We are so blessed that we have finally found you a great baby-sitter. You love Nay-Nay, and you reach for her every morning when I drop you off. As long as she is standing up, you never cry. We love you, little miracle!!

We decided to venture out to the fair on Tuesday. Tuesday night is always free night and armband night, so needless to say, it was very crowded and busy. We decided to park in the back of the fairgrounds and come in by all the animals to avoid the rides. The kids got to look at all the horses, cows, chickens, ducks, and turkeys. After looking at the animals, we decided to get a bite to eat. Emma and Mac rode the ponies...Emma loved it, but Mac hated it. They got to pet all the animals in the petting area...everything from cows to goats to sheep. They even milked a cow...Emma's been asking for 2 weeks when she would get to milk a cow. Overall, we have a great experience...Randall and I are going back tomorrow night to work in the church booth.

After fighing Mac to get him to wear a cap, he has decided in the last week that he loves them. He even wore Emma's Dora the Explorer cap around the house all afternoon one day. This is him trying to put on Daddy's cap while walking around the house saying, "Daddy, Daddy!!" Isn't that sweet?!!

Mac has figured out the Emma's camo recliner is just his size. He loves to climb up in it to watch his cartoons (Blue's Clues, Yo Gabba Gabba, and Diego). In this pic, he is just pretending to be asleep!!

Emma has decided that she really likes to have her hair curly...which is fine by me. She lets me put pink sponge rollers in her hair after she takes a bath, and she sleeps in them all night. I have figured out that if her hair is extremely wet when I roll it, then the curls seem to hold better. I think it just looks adorable.
